"Our team consistently looks for new ways to deliver unique, fun experiences for the gamer," said Greg Thomas, President of Visual Concepts at 2K. "NBA 2KVR will give fans even more access to our franchise and test new skills across entertaining VR challenges."

Players will join NBA 2K16 cover athlete All-Star Paul George and step onto the court at the Indiana Packers' stadium, the Bankers Life Fieldhouse. George will provide commentary and guide you with tips to help improve your skills in mini-games like a "three-point shootout, a speed and accuracy skills challenge, and the buzzer beater countdown." As your skills improve, you'll earn a variety of fuel boosts that will aid your shooting, speed, recovery, and more to help you reach the top of leaderboards.

"As a lifelong fan of NBA 2K, it's exciting to see them take the leap into VR, and even more exciting that it'll be on my home court," George said in a statement. "I can't wait for fans to dominate on the virtual court."
